Publications

I have published a range of papers on different aspects of translation studies. Currently I am researching the use of corpus linguistics and the internet for translation purposes and am investigating Spanish and Spanish American literature in translation. As a translator, I am also working on the translation of a biography of the Spanish cyclist Miguel Induráin.
